Sasaki and Peeps (佐々木とピーちゃん, Sasaki to Pii-chan) is a Japanese light novel series written by Buncololi and illustrated by Kantoku. The series originally began serialization as a web novel on the novel posting websites Kakuyomu and Shōsetsuka ni Narō in December 2018, before beginning publication under Media Factory's MF Bunko J imprint in January 2021; eight volumes have been released as of January 2024. A manga adaptation illustrated by Pureji Osho began serialization in Kadokawa Shoten's Shōnen Ace Plus online magazine in January 2021, and has been compiled in three tankōbon volumes as of August 2023. Both the light novel and manga are licensed in English by Yen Press. An anime television series adaptation produced by Silver Link aired from January to March 2024. A second season has been announced.

Plot

Sasaki is a middle-aged salaryman going through his mundane days, one after another. After seeing a coworker's cat pics, he is inspired to adopt a pet, hoping to give his empty days some spark of joy. While perusing the varied animals wanting a home, he comes across a small bird with a star on its chest. Feeling a connection, he takes his new friend home only to discover the tiny bird to be Piercarlo, the reincarnated Star Sage from a parallel world. Upon further discussion, Sasaki gives Piercarlo the name Peeps and they form a pact agreeing to live and work together. Their adventures begin as they explore both worlds, with Sasaki attempting to master the magic Peeps bestowed upon him. Soon enough, events get more intense as, in the modern world, Sasaki becomes involved with an organization of psychics (modern-day magic users) trying to protect civilians from a wild faction of "Irregulars", while in the parallel world, a war threatens to overtake the country he has become fond of. One thing leads to another, and Sasaki finds his once simple life becoming crazier and crazier with every passing day.
